    Frank's getting some pushback for the term "promiscuous progressives" (by which he means people who bounce around from Liberals to NDP to Green).https://twitter.com/VoiceOfFranky/status/1190827624421109761 …

        If anyone thinks this was a reference to moral character or sexuality I suggest they step back and think about that . Sometimes whimsy and alliteration can be effective tools for communicating important ideas . Not sorry.

        Looking at this in retrospect, I think it's bad news for Canadian right that in recent years they've been more engaged & energized but came up short in 2 elections in a row.

        Surely strategic voting has a role. Speaking as someone who lived in Alberta for many years…

        seriously wondering how the word promiscuous was not questioned when preceding women (in the slide further down), and especially when *profiling them in whatever context. and absolutely especially when the tweeter explains that the group includes men.

        Someone used a similar term to describe me a few years ago when I was buying phones on Kijiji, using them for a couple weeks and then selling them. ---and I still say that the metal body Sony Z-something, and the iPhone 4 were the nicest feeling smartphones ever made.

        It’s not necessary since ABC is already used for people who strategically jump between parties to thwart the Conservatives
